Shins

Roll the Tibialis Anterior and surrounding muscles

About This Video

Target your shins with focus on the Tibialis Anterior, Extensor Digitorum and Hallicus Longus, and Peroneus Tertius. This guided routine helps prevent shin splints and improve ankle mobility.

How to Perform This Technique

1

Begin on your hands and knees, with palms flat on the floor.

2

Keep your neck and head straight, looking somewhat downward.

3

Position the roller under your torso. Raise one knee off the floor, and position it on the roller.

4

Use your arms and move your leg to move your whole body back and forth, so that the shin is massaged below the knee and above the ankle.

5

To increase the resistance, transfer more of your body weight onto the shin, instead of your arms.

Perform approximately 10 complete rolls (back and forth).

Switch sides and repeat.
